CLRyan5's New Success Thread

WOW, you racked on the Astros. The sad thing is you have to be a fan of them when they come in town. I went for the parking lot when they were in town. And the only people we could figure out were Jose Altuve and Carlos Pena, but one question if I send about 4 cards to barnes for TTM, would he sign all of them in a decent time?

Yeah the Astros have always been my favorite team. Whether they're playing in the World Series or in the midst of another 100 loss season, I'll still be a fan. I knew every single player by their first name so I got everyone I wanted/needed. The few graphers that were down there knew very few of them and were impressed by my knowledge of the team haha

[clryan5]

Sick Astros stuff! I am incredibly jealous!

Thanks! I'm hoping the Astros are here next year in April or May on a weekend so I can graph them one more time like this weekend before moving east

I wish I got more oppurtunities to graph them but I don't have a team within 12 hours of me.

That sucks! Idk what I'd do without teams in my city haha

Holy Astros! I miss having them in the NL Central.

Holy Astros! I miss having them in the NL Central.

You and me both. I'll always be bitter about what Bud Selig did to them

[dsolzman]

Should have sent the Brewers back instead.

Should have sent the Brewers back instead.

Completely agree

Computer broke 6 weeks ago so I had no way to post pics but I just got a new phone that should allow me to share some of my graphs I've obtained over the past several weeks. Midterms are next week but I'm hoping to get some posted this weekend while I clean my apartment and pack up all of my WNBA and MLB graphing stuff and get ready for NBA season

[clryan5]

Hey everyone,
I'm finally getting back to posting on here after a long break. I got back from vacation in August after the Astros were here and just got too busy with senior year of college and stuff in my personal life. I slowed down on my graphing pace and have no idea if I reached my 2013 goal. My computer broke so I stopped photographing all of my autographs. Here are most of autographs I've obtained since August; I've probably missed some and posted duplicate pictures of others, but for the most part here they are.

Concerts:
I went to 2 different Jillette Johnson concerts here in Minneapolis. She's my favorite singer and she is such a nice person! We chatted for about 5 minutes after each concert; after the 2nd concert she remembered me so that was really cool. She does a meet and greet after each concert and signs whatever I ask her to. So cool! Can't wait to see her again here in April at First Ave!

The first concert she headlined with Satellite, a band I also like. I got all the members on a poster they were selling and a picture with 2 of them. The lead singer made sure all the members of the band signed my poster for me. They were so cool

TTM:
Haven't done much TTM, but I've been getting back into it lately

Penny Johnson Jerald: Took about 15 months to get back. This is 1 of my favorite returns since Castle is my favorite show
